    Tissue-specific O-GlcNAcylation profiling identifies substrates in translational machinery in Drosophila mushroom body contributing to olfactory learning

    Haibin Yu, Dandan Liu ... Kai Yuan
    Brain region-specific profiling of O-GlcNAcylation interactome in Drosophila mushroom body suggests that hypo-O-GlcNAcylation impacts cognitive function by regulating translational activity.

    Induced sensorimotor cortex plasticity remediates chronic treatment-resistant visual neglect

    Jacinta O'Shea, Patrice Revol ... Yves Rossetti
    Tonic disinhibition of left motor cortex during prism adaptation enhanced consolidation of sensorimotor and cognitive prism after effects, causing lasting clinical gains in three patient cases with chronic treatment-resistant visual neglect.

    CREB overexpression in dorsal CA1 ameliorates long-term memory deficits in aged rats

    Xiao-Wen Yu, Daniel M Curlik II ... John F Disterhoft
    Behavioral, biochemical, and biophysical analyses show that age-related memory deficits can be rescued by directly overexpressing wild-type CREB.

    Amphiphysin I cleavage by asparagine endopeptidase leads to tau hyperphosphorylation and synaptic dysfunction

    Xingyu Zhang, Li Zou ... Zhentao Zhang
    Amphiphysin I is identified as a new substrate of AEP, and the resultant fragment induces synaptic dysfunction and promotes tau hyperphosphorylation via activating CDK5 kinase.

    Lack of IL-1R8 in neurons causes hyperactivation of IL-1 receptor pathway and induces MECP2-dependent synaptic defects

    Romana Tomasoni, Raffaella Morini ... Michela Matteoli
    Excessive inflammation of the brain in early life predisposes individuals to neurodevelopmental disorders by preventing synapses from developing correctly.

    Cerebellar associative sensory learning defects in five mouse autism models

    Alexander D Kloth, Aleksandra Badura ... Samuel S-H Wang
    Five mouse models of autism show deficits in delay eyeblink conditioning, a form of split-second sensory learning that involves the cerebellum, a frequent site of disruption in autistic brains.

    Disease-modifying effects of sodium selenate in a model of drug-resistant, temporal lobe epilepsy

    Pablo M Casillas-Espinosa, Alison Anderson ... Terence J O'Brien
    Sodium selenate is the first treatment with persistent disease-modifying effects reducing seizures and improving cognitive deficits, in chronically epileptic and drug-resistant TLE animals.

    Rapid, automated, and experimenter-free touchscreen testing reveals reciprocal interactions between cognitive flexibility and activity-based anorexia in female rats

    Kaixin Huang, Laura K Milton ... Claire J Foldi
    An automated touchscreen cognitive testing system for rats reduces the length of training required to learn tasks, making it possible to assess cognitive profiles in adolescent animals to more appropriately capture cognitive deficits in adolescent pathologies, such as anorexia nervosa.

    Poor coherence in older people's speech is explained by impaired semantic and executive processes

    Paul Hoffman, Ekaterina Loginova, Asatta Russell
    Remaining focused on the topic at hand when speaking depends on effective selection of task-relevant semantic knowledge, and declines in this ability account for increases in off-topic speech in older people.

    Age-related differences in prefrontal glutamate are associated with increased working memory decay that gives the appearance of learning deficits

    Milena Rmus, Mingjian He ... Matthew R Nassar
    Apparent age-related differences in learning are best accounted for by rapid decay of information in working memory, which is associated with levels of prefrontal glutamate.
